Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough & Strategy Guide

Head over to Playbox X's place at the north end of Algonquin. When you arrive at his apartment, you'll find him hanging out with some ladies (who don't seem especially fond of him). However, he excuses himself and brings Niko out to the balcony so they can talk. This is a lengthy cutscene, by the way, so sit tight and take it all in. Eventually, Dwayne Forge will show up at Playbox X's pad. This is the guy Playboy X mentioned earlier for a brief time, as the guy who is in prison but taught you everything he knows. The two don't necessarily seem thrilled to have to work with each other again, but we'll deal with that storyline arc later.

When you regain control, Playboy X will let you know of a car parked at the south end of the borough that's chock full of weapons we'll need to complete the mission at hand. Because Playboy X lives so far away, however, this is going to be a pretty epic drive southward through Algonquin. The good news is that you probably haven't gotten a chance to explore this borough in its entirety as of yet, and this is a good chance to do just that. Algonquin is impressive! Regardless, when you reach your destination off of the South Parkway, you'll find the car Playboy X was talking about. Bail out of your car and get into that one to retrieve said weapons.

You're now equipped with a heavy machinegun, some grenades, and most importantly, a sniper rifle (though you may have retained a sniper rifle from a previous mission). The first step of this mission is to use that sniper rifle on the roof of the tall building next to you. Follow Playboy X's lead and head to the roof via the makeshift elevator on the side of the building. Ride it all the way to the roof (it's a ways up, to be sure) and get ready to wield that sniper rifle with precision.
